Architects (and architecture interested people) among us

[Václav]

Project of (a bit huge) head railway station for pak96.comic brought me to two following thought:

Is anyone among us (as we are here, on this forum) architect or at least interested in architecture?

I don't count myself as interested in architecture, becausae I identify only historical european styles like gothic, new gothic, baroque or secession. But I am lost in modern styles like functionalism, cubism, brutalism, postmodern.

Base:
I decided that building should be brutalistic - but I am not sure if style I used, is really brutalism or any similar style. Minor problem may be in fact that as brutalism has many styles (from raw brutalism corresponding to French base of that word¹ to neat style of late years²), more styles are used on that railway building used too.

¹ (béton) brut = rough concrete; like this

² like this

Previews show both wings (central waiting hall is not painted yet). But previews are wrong rotated. One wing will be rotated of 180 degrees.

Igor Eliezer is architect.

I work at an architectural office, but as a software developer, not as an architect (the word software architect is taboo there...). I am interested in architecture, but I am far from an expert. I just listen what they say and decide for myself what I like and what I don't like. Your first two examples I really hate, but the third one is nice enough..

I was at an Art School which also gave classes in Architecture. Honestly, that would have been an interesting career choice for me, alas, I chose to have no career. Wait, what?
